After Zhang Yan came out of the main hall, he saw Shen Baishuang standing outside with his back to his house. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Zhenren Shen?"
Shen Baishuang turned around and said in a deep voice, "Sect Leader Shixiong ordered me to go with you."
Zhang Yan nodded. He sensed that this trip might not be so simple.
Shen Baishuang seemed to want to say something, but after taking a look at the main hall, he jumped up and said, "Let's talk while we walk."
Zhang Yan nodded in agreement, then he rode the wind and flew out of the hall.
With their abilities, it would only take a moment to reach the Small Cold World, but at this time, they deliberately slowed down their traveling speed.
After getting off the Floating Sky, Shen Baishuang asked, "How much do you know about what happened in the past?"
Zhang Yan shook his head. After he took the position of Du Zhen Hall Master, he never deliberately inquired about the past of the sect. First, these things had nothing to do with cultivation, so he was not interested to know. Second, it might be related to what Sect Leader Qin did in the past. As a senior, it was better to know less, so he did not know much about the person who was imprisoned in the Small Cold World.
Shen Baishuang looked into the distance and said, "After Uncle Qin ascended, the sect gradually became chaotic. At this time, Master ordered me to go out to find opportunities. When I was traveling, I followed Master's instructions and did not inquire about the sect. It was not until later when I returned to the mountain that I learned the details from Master and Senior Sister Qin."
Zhang Yan just listened and did not interrupt.
Shen Baishuang continued, "Among Uncle Qin's disciples, there were two who were extremely outstanding. They were Senior Brother Yan Changsheng and Senior Brother Li Gezhang. These two overshadowed all the other disciples of the same generation, and their age difference was not big. At that time, they all thought that the next sect leader would be chosen from these two, but in the end, it was fate that made a fool out of them."
Speaking of this, he sighed. At that time, he was still young and admired the two. He did not expect that the two would fight for the position of the sect leader, and end up with one breaking out of the door and the other being reincarnated.
After a moment of silence, he continued, "However, Martial Uncle Qin's other disciples are not to be trifled with. Let's not talk about Senior Brother Sect Leader, there's also the one imprisoned in the Little Cold Realm. His innate talent is also outstanding, which is why he is in the same sect as Senior Brother Yan and Senior Brother Li. If he was in another sect, he would be a top talent. "
At this time, Zhang Yan asked, "May I know your name?"
Shen Baishuang said, "His name is Mu Shoushan. If it wasn't for the fact that the path he took was very unusual, no one knows what kind of trouble he would have caused in the sect. Senior Brother Qin wouldn't have worked together with the sect to imprison him."
Zhang Yan was slightly surprised and said, "Could it be that this person is also interested in the position of Sect Master?"
Shen Baishuang seemed to have thought of something, his expression somewhat strange. He said, "There is indeed such a reason. Originally, this person had a lazy personality and seemed to have no interest in anything other than cultivation. However, who would have thought that this person's fighting ability is not inferior to that of the two senior brothers? In some aspects, he is even better than them. "
When Zhang Yan heard this, he could not help but be a little surprised. He had really fought with Yan Changsheng and knew his ability very well. Although he had never seen Li Gezhang, Zhenren Li was not weak. However, the two of them could be compared, so he was not weak.
However, this person was actually not weaker than the two of them in Shen Baishuang's evaluation. In fact, he even surpassed them. It seemed that he was not an ordinary person. He thought for a while and asked, "May I know which cultivation technique this person cultivates?"
"Not just one." Shen Baishuang took a deep breath and said, "He cultivates three at the same time."
Zhang Yan could not help but reveal a surprised expression. He said, "Three at the same time?"
In Qincang School, those who cultivated the five skills usually only focused on one cultivation technique. However, there was no lack of people who cultivated two at the same time. However, to do so, they needed to cultivate at the same time from the beginning. The effort required was much more than that of their peers.
However, if they succeeded, they would indeed have many more methods. They would even be able to learn one more of the twelve divine abilities. That would be a great advantage in a fight of magical powers.
However, if one of the two cultivation techniques could not keep up, then they would definitely be blocked at a certain realm. For example, Zhong Muqing was like this. If he had been cultivating under Meng Zhen, his future achievements would have been considerable. However, halfway through, he switched to Qin Yu to cultivate, so he was delayed for a lot of time. He even achieved Yuanying much later than Huo Xuan. As a result, he had to invest more time and energy for every step forward.
Although it was not that no one had tried to cultivate three skills at the same time, it was only for those who wanted to improve their fighting ability and cultivate more divine abilities. They themselves knew that after stepping on this path, unless they completely abandoned their cultivation and started from scratch, most of them would have no hope of reaching the Great Dao. They did not expect that someone would really enter the Heavenly Abode using this method.
Zhang Yan pondered for a moment and said, "How did this Zhenren do it? Did he rely on some external object? "
Shen Baishuang said, "You are very accurate. When Mu Shixiong was cultivating in his early years, he accidentally entered a small world in the sect. That was the only small world left behind by the second generation sect master. Mu Shixiong obtained a strange object from inside, called the 'Pool of Creation'. This object was originally left to the second generation sect master by the Great Underworld Patriarch before he left. It was said that he relied on this treasure to do what ordinary people could not do."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "If that's the case, then it makes sense."
Shen Baishuang said, "If Mu Shixiong's path was smooth, it could be considered as opening up a path for the future generations. Unfortunately, an accident occurred in the end, and in the end, he was divided into two souls. One was arrogant and overbearing, and could not tolerate the slightest bit of disobedience, and would fall out with others at the slightest provocation. The other person's temperament was not much different from Senior Brother's original personality. Most of the time, the latter was in control of the body, and it had always been safe. However, it just so happened that after the two senior brothers were gone, he also jumped out and said that he wanted to seize the position of sect master. Because he always acted without fear, the sect master and the sect master joined forces and imprisoned him in the Small Cold World."
Zhang Yan said, "So that's what happened."
Shen Baishuang said, "The Chen clan has been painstakingly looking for that treasure for tens of thousands of years, but it was always difficult to find it. Later on, when they found out that it fell into Senior Brother Mu's hands, they wanted to exchange it with other things, but Senior Brother Mu was unwilling. Now that I think about it, if he had taken it out at that time, then perhaps there wouldn't have been so many problems in the future."
As they spoke, the two of them had already arrived in front of the Parting Peak of the Great Pool of Dragon Lake. Because the news had been spread beforehand, there was already a pale Yuanying elder waiting here. When he saw Zhang and Shen arrive, he hurriedly took a few steps forward, stood on the cave cliff, and bowed deeply, saying, "Yuan Tong greets the two Masters."
There was a look of reverence on his face. There were more than ten abodes in the sect, and because they usually cultivated in their own abodes, it was usually difficult for the cultivators in the sect to meet even one of them. They never thought that they would meet two at once this time.
Zhang Yan looked at him a few times, and said, "So that Elder Yuan who guards this place is, who are you?"
Yuan Tong said, "That's my master."
Zhang Yan nodded, and said, "So Elder Yuan took in a disciple later on."
He looked at Yuan Tong for a few times, and saw that this Yuan Tong's talent was average, but he was able to cultivate to the Yuanying level. It must have something to do with him guarding the Little Cold World, so he reached out his hand and pointed.
Yuan Tong only felt his body tremble. However, there were wisps of white smoke coming out from the top of his head. It looked extremely cold, and there was even a thin layer of frost on his hair. He circulated his energy and felt his whole body warm up. It was extremely comfortable, as if he had drunk a bowl of mellow wine. His complexion even became a little rosier.
He had been cultivating in the Little Cold World for a long time, and the cold air had invaded his lungs, so he had to drink some Huanyang Wine from time to time to resist it. But even so, there was still the accumulation of cold poison. Although it was not certain that he would be ill. However, when he cultivated, he had to split his attention to suppress it. Furthermore, the longer he cultivated, the more troublesome it would be. However, at this moment, he felt that all the poisonous gas had disappeared without a trace under that finger, and he could not feel it anymore.
After a few breaths, he finally recovered from his surprise, and deeply bowed to Zhang Yan. He was filled with gratitude, and said, "Thank you, Zhenren, for helping me to expel the cold air."
Zhang Yan nodded, and said, "Back then, Elder Yuan and I were considered to be friends, so consider it as me taking care of his disciples. Open the realm gate, Zhenren Shen and I need to enter."
Yuan Tong said, "Yes, yes, I will open the realm gate now."
He turned around and clapped his hands three times. He heard a muffled sound coming from inside, and then a gust of cold wind blew out. He instinctively moved a step to the side, and before he could turn around to greet them, he saw two rays of clear light entering the realm gate.
He stared blankly for a while, and did not even close the door, and sat down by the door. He took out a pot of wine, and a small cup. He faced the world of ice and snow inside, and slowly drank.
After Zhang and Shen entered the small world, in order to prevent their magic power from shaking the mountains and rivers below, they leaped up to a very high place and flew north. In less than a quarter of an hour, they arrived in front of a large formation.
Zhang Yan came here a few hundred years ago, and at that time, he was at the level of Core Formation. When he felt the power of the big formation, he retreated far away, and did not dare to get close. Looking at it now, he saw four altars below, and outside, there were sixteen big pillars and four thousand small pillars. They were arranged into a formation, and there was a faint glow above. Gusts of wind were howling, and clouds of black smoke and devilish aura were circling in the air.
Shen Baishuang said, "That is the source of the Nine Underworlds Cold Wind that is wreaking havoc in this realm. It will happen once every twelve hours, so that this place is always cold, and it is convenient to detain the criminals in the sect."
Zhang Yan's spirit moved, and a talisman floated out from his sleeve, and floated in front of him.
This was the talisman given by Sect Leader Qin, and it could be used to enter the big formation. He raised his hand, and just as he was about to open the formation door, his movement paused slightly, and he looked in the direction of the realm door.
Shen Baishuang also noticed it, and he said in a deep voice, "It is Senior Sister Qin outside. She must be worried about Senior Brother Mu, but it is not a problem. Without Sect Leader Senior Brother's order, she would not dare to enter."
Zhang Yan retracted his gaze, and stretched out his finger to touch the talisman. A ray of light was emitted from the talisman, and it shone below, and immediately, a formation eye was cut open above the formation Qi.
He rolled up his sleeve, and kept the talisman, and said, "Zhenren Shen, follow me inside." After saying this, he turned into a ray of light and descended.
Shen Baishuang also jumped down.
After passing through the formation door, they realized that it was a pitch-black tunnel made of smoke. After walking for an unknown amount of time, a spot of light appeared in front of them, and they knew that they had reached the exit. The two of them extended their flying lights and passed through.
When they reached the outside, Zhang Yan's gaze swept across, and he saw that the sky was high and the ground was wide, there were no clouds in the sky for thousands of miles, and the place was green and unusually clear. Below them was a calm lake, without any ripples, and the light was like a mirror. In the distance, there were two mountains shaped like sharp awls, and they were covered with pure white snow. His expression changed slightly, and he said, "This is not the Little Cold World."
Shen Baishuang's expression was also a little strange. He looked around, and lowered his head to think, and said, "I have been to many small and medium-sized worlds in Qincang school, but I have never been to this place, and I have never heard of it. So, this is most likely the small world that the second generation sect leader left behind."
Zhang Yan also nodded. Almost all the small and medium-sized worlds were recorded in the Hall of Du Zhen, but there was no record of this place. It was obvious that either the identity of the founder was special, and he did not want outsiders to disturb him, or the sect deliberately concealed it.
Shen Baishuang thought to himself, "I thought that Senior Brother Sect Leader imprisoned Senior Brother Mu here, and he must have suffered for hundreds of years, but I didn't expect it to be like this. Senior Brother must have done this to hide it from the eyes and ears of the aristocratic families."
After sensing with his heart for a moment, Zhang Yan sensed a wisp of obscure Qi activity in the mountain, and he looked over, and said, "Zhenren Mu should be there."
With a thought, his body turned into a ray of light, and in just a few breaths, he arrived in front of the mountain. He saw that the back of the mountain peak had a platform made with mana, and on top of it, there was a fine house, so he descended and landed outside.
Shen Baishuang also arrived at this moment, and after he landed, he raised his voice and said, "Is Senior Brother Mu here?"
After a short while, the curtains of the house were lifted, and a well-groomed, gentle, and elegant white-robed scholar came out. He looked to be in his thirties, but there was a hint of laziness in his expression. He revealed a surprised expression and said, "Junior Brother Shen?"
He then looked at Zhang Yan, and there was a hint of vigilance in his expression, and he said, "How should I address you, Zhenren?"
Shen Baishuang said in a deep voice, "This is the current Hall Master of the Du Zhen Hall, Zhang Yan, Zhenren Zhang."
Mu Shoushan was instantly filled with respect. He knew that every person who could become a Hall Master of the three halls had either made great contributions to the sect, or they had extraordinary strength, or else they would not be able to suppress the people of the same generation in the sect. Thus, he raised his hand and solemnly bowed, and said, "Greetings, Hall Master of the Du Zhen Hall."
Zhang Yan also returned the greeting, and said, "Zhenren Mu, greetings."
Mu Shoushan waved his hand, and said, "A sinner doesn't deserve Hall Master Du Zhen's greeting. It must be my Junior Brother's idea for the two of you to come here. Do you have anything to say?"
Zhang Yan looked at him, and said, "The Sect Master specially asked me to ask you, Zhenren Mu, have you let go of your past thoughts?"
Mu Shoushan smiled, and there was a hint of laziness in his eyes, and he said, "So what if I can let go? So what if I can't? Hall Master Du Zhen, you can go and tell the Sect Master that I'm living well here, and I don't want to leave. "
After saying that, he wanted to return to the fine house, but he realized that Zhang Yan did not move at all, and he said in surprise, "Why aren't you leaving, Hall Master Du Zhen?"
Zhang Yan said plainly, "I still want to ask for the opinion of the other person."
"Hmm?"
Mu Shoushan was stunned, and he frowned, and said in a warning tone, "This person is violent, violent, and doesn't follow the rules. He also likes to fight with others. It's not easy for you to cultivate to this stage, so why must you meet him? If you're hurt, it'll be the Qincang School's loss. "
Zhang Yan seemed to be interested, and he said, "Is that person really like that?"
Mu Shoushan said seriously, "I'm not exaggerating at all. It's better for Hall Master Du Zhen and Junior Brother Shen to leave as soon as possible. It won't be good if anyone gets hurt.
Zhang Yan's eyes flickered, and he said, "If that's the case, I should meet him even more."
Mu Shoushan was surprised, and he said, "Why is that?"
Zhang Yan's eyes flickered, and he said, "I once fought with Zhenren Yan, but unfortunately, he was not at his peak, and I couldn't enjoy myself to the fullest, and I deeply regretted it. Today, my cultivation has improved slightly, and I'm looking everywhere for a suitable opponent. Now that Zhenren is here, it'll be my fortune if I can have a match!"
